People tried to figure out how to take pictures in the dimly
lit hall. )

(Luckily,
their cameras are better than ours :) )

We
eschewed the traditional ritual of stuffing cake in each other's mouth
(and many others, though I simply forgot to get around to the bouquet
toss); however, we did have a first dance.

Before we ate and danced the night away,
there were many toasts; in addition to the traditional one
from the best man, Owen's father Jeremy, Owen's mother Joy, and not to be
left out, my mother Joanne all gave speeches. After these, Owen
prepared to stand up and give his rebuttal!
)
Of course, everyone caught up with family. Here's
Owen with some of his mother's family
(his mother Joy, aunt Mirth, and uncle Bradley),

and here's a picture of all the Roth men (Hugh, David, Owen, Evan, and
Jeremy) -- it's rare to see them all
dressed up and in the same room!
